What is MVP doing about the media, disinformation, etc?

To defeat autocracy and shift the trajectory of our country, we need to win hearts and minds en masse by pairing local organizing with new-media engagement.

In short, we must organize the internet.

Right now, the progressive new-media landscape is underfunded, underdeveloped, and unorganized. In 2025-2026, MVP aims to change this by investing at least $5-10 million in five key areas:

  1. Digital Power at the State Level: Working with state-based organizing groups to build digital infrastructure to shift local policy agendas and national narratives from the ground up.
  2. Youth Movements: Funding youth organizations and digital-native young leaders to create new online spaces to inspire the next generation toward a more just, inclusive, sustainable future.
  3. Identity and Cultural Organizing: Scaling the impact of Black-led digital organizing by investing in culture-first online strategies that combat disinformation and shape worldviews.
  4. Digital Voter Engagement: Using creative digital engagement to reach voters where they are and turn nonpartisan election mobilization into catalytic moments that can transform culture.
  5. Amplification Networks: Creating a bigger, louder, more unified “narrative ecosystem” to counter disinformation, amplify effective messages, shape the agenda, and shift public opinion.
